“IF YOU DON’T LEAVE YOUR COMFORT ZONE NOW, YOU WILL NEVER BE SUCCESSFUL”
The people who say things like these, I am pretty sure they haven’t been uncomfortable long enough. I mean, people don’t intend to stay in their comfort zones at the cost of their career, relationships or happiness.
The necessity of being in their secure domain is not out of choice but by previous incidents in their lives that consequently lead to the introverted personality type they are.
You are a part of people you’ve met
They say that as you meet and spend time with people, you either change or adapt to their personalities. You take some traits from them or give them some. You might gain some wisdom from the old people, whereas letting go and true bliss from the young ones.
Your parents, siblings and close friends are the people you spend most of your lifetime with, it is safe to say that your personality is a product of their behavioural patterns.
So don’t blame yourself for being in the insecurity shell that you are in, that the society so stereotypically calls “comfort” zones.
Comfort zones for people are different
There are people who are doing much worse in their so-called comfort zones; getting wasted and injecting themselves with toxic materials. People like these–when they face failure or rejection–turn towards an addiction to escape from the harsh reality of life. Their drug-induced psychosis shatters the idea of the reality that is.
So if you’re sitting in your comfort zone contemplating life and not doing anything harmful to your body and mind; you are already winning.
Take the leap
I know it’s hard to deal with your anxiety, fear of rejection and failure, but that’s life. You have to accept for what it is and take the leap. Success does not matter as long as you are out there trying because when you are out there trying, you are leaving your comfort zone of despair step by step and that is what matters. To you, to your happiness.
People don’t realise leaving comfort zones is not a magical act. Snap of the finger
poof you’re out of your comfort zone, out there living like extroverts, not caring what other people think before you even utter a single word.
So take your time to uncomfortably step out of your comfort zone and when you look back, it will seem just like a phase.
